"My deepest thanks to the Academy and its members for this…Glorious prize. I owe this and so much more to so many. I have lived in America for the longest time and I am deeply grateful to her for the loves and the friendships I have made and the many, many wonderful gifts it has given me. My home, my livelihood, my family and now Oscar," Oldman said during his speech.

"I would like to salute Sir Winston Churchill who has been marvelous company on what can be described as an incredible journey and my wife Gisele for traveling that road with me and for being at my side…Obviously I'm not going to win the ski," he said. "I would like to thank my mother who is older than the Oscar. She is 99 years young next birthday and she's watching this ceremony from the comfort of her sofa. I say thank you to my mother for your love and your support. Put the kettle on, I'm bringing Oscar home."
